Yesterday was a wonderful day with family and friends. So I must go into how this day went with so much flow!
Cadence looked at us and asked "can you turn that down I can't hear my movie?" I am laughing so hard just thinking about what I was about to say next that I just couldn't contain myself. I tell her "Cadence, eat with your left hand and put your right finger in the ear that doesn't have the headphone in it." OMG that child gave me such a look, I will call it the crazy eye and I hear this meek "man mommy is so silly." I am now crying because I am laughing so hard, it was Caitlin just being Caitlin and that made it even funnier.
When we think that we have to force a perfect night with our children we just lost. We had a perfect night with our children and nothing was forced. I walked around the corner making the girls think I was getting something but then when their guard was down I would scare them, they would go running and screaming and nothing about that was forced, I didn't even have to do the running lol. When I wanted to sit I did and when the girls would walk up to me I would have my head held down; then growl and that's all it took to have them laughing and running about.
Parents find themselves begging children to go to bed, begging to get things together and even to get ready for bed. I found so perfectly and clearly last night that when we connect back to them there is no begging, they go so easy they want to go because for my girls they are the first ones to not want to disappoint and they go so far these days to call these good nights, and they both go to bed saying this was such a good night lets have another tomorrow. I love that about them! So they do go to bed and on time and they wake up so loving, I walked in this morning and they were hugging and talking about how they will get to go to the same school in two years.
They both got ready today with smiles on their face, they both did what was asked and never showed a sign of upset. So happy they were and are and it is through their smiles that God lives this isn't just something I type to the reader I tell my girls each and everyday just how we live in flow and smile with God how life will just BE so abundant for us and it is already that way for THEM.
Enjoy your day and when you see a child smile today smile back at the God that is in them and feel your smile with your heart this is how our earth beings to heal :)
